I misread the patch.  My mistake.

But think who would type "git<Enter>".  They are either people
who (1) do not even know that "git" alone is not useful and that
it always wants a subcommand, or (2) know "git<Enter>" is the
same as "git help" and wants to get the "common command list"
quickly.  Technically, "'' is not a git-command" is correct, but
the message does not help either audience, does it?
